I find it quite flattering that someone would gather such a blob, including seven cap ships, to fight us. Kinda makes me feel special.

Originally by: Deschenus Maximus I gotta say, this is the first time someone in Snowy posted an OP that wasn't chuck-full of annoying e-peenyness.
I'm going to have a long talk with Tiller about the non-annoying non-e-peenyness of his posts.

In other news, we had a lovely camp tonight with Ginger's carrier. So much for "carebearing" to "recover" from this fight.

Originally by: Flinx Evenstar I doubt that Looking at your own killboards, I dont think the 50 rookie ships could have dropped enough loot to replace even one of your carriers 
1) We kill or ransom everything we catch, with probably a 95% rate. 2) We don't choose who comes into Hagular 3) Ransoms are not shown on the killboard
Troll elswhere.

Originally by: KingKenny People forget this is a game
Yes. It's just a game, people, lighten up. Some people, I fear, eat, sleep, and breath Eve. If you've ever spent more than 10 seconds thinking about SNOWY while not actually playing the game then you're taking it too seriously. Period.
I find the varying mild to extreme obsessions with us to be a little flattering, but also disturbing. Half of you fall asleep thinking about Ginger. That's just... not natural.

Read back through without your anti-SNOWY blinders on.

Originally by: Flinx Evenstar if anyone wants a laugh, have a look at www.october-snow.com
The best kill in the last few days is a tempest....Snow needed 2 Carriers 2 Dreads, 2 Battles ships and a command ship ....these guys are scary 
Honestly, when you see a thanatos below a Huginn for damage, you have to hold your sides in laughter.
Thanks for the laugh guys, thats the funniest killboard I think I have ever seen 
I know, I burst out laughing at it as well, especially since they proclaim themselves the best   Go snowy. And samirol I doubt you make money from the rookie ships... And I make way more kills belt pirating and probably more money too if I tried although I prefer not to ransom and just kill since when you don't lose ships or hardly ever its just alot more fun to get kill :)
Congrats, you win the award for having the biggest hardon for us. And also probably some other award for being unintelligent. The idea that you make as much is as us doing belt piracy is laughable.
And to Flinx, you obviously have no idea what we use a carrier for.
Ah, another day in SNOWY. I have yet to see a single person who hates us be anything other than a mouth-breathing simpleton. Can someone intelligent please argue with me? I'm tired of all these verbally challenged retarded children.

What's the big deal with logging?
Here's is a KM I got by probing and finding the pod of a logger:
2007.02.02 04:06
Victim: x Alliance: x Corp: x Destroyed: Capsule System: Hagilur Security: 0.4
Involved parties:
Name: Alowishus (laid the final blow) Security: -10.0 Alliance: NONE Corp: OctoberSnow Corp Ship: Huginn Weapon: 280mm Howitzer Artillery II
If you really want to pod someone who's logged, it's entirely possible and doesn't take much work. If logging is honestly a big deal for you then you're lazy. Plain and simple.

Originally by: Abraxius Result: Maybe you now have the same feelings, like the 2 month old char who is traveling with his Hoarder with all his things in it, and get ganked by 2 Phoenix, 1 Thanatos several BS, Recons and BC¦s at a gate.
Nah, doubt Ginger felt as honored being killed by you guys as that Hoarder pilot would.
This somes up my most pleasurable experience with LFT:
Right after several of them dock to avoid a fight where they outnumber us, one of them says, "you guys only fight in docking range."

Originally by: Lara Renquist Why? cause these guy's make eve fun, these guy's dont give a rat's ass about anything and are here to kill you period.
Exactly. Anyone who doesn't think we make Eve fun really needs to take a look at themselves and how seriously they take this game. I can't honestly say I hate or have a grudge against anyone. I've been killed by players about 60 times and I've lost a lot of crap and each time I laughed it off, logged out for an hour and then came back without giving my killer a second thought. The fact that there are people out there who aren't like this is laughable. You should all be ashamed.

Originally by: Karlemgne It is, by its very nature, fun to make you guys look silly.
And yet this shows a certain amount of malice that I don't think should exist in this game. And by the looks of it, some of you have a borderline or full blown obsession. Seek help.

Yes, we do not use the carrier as a WTFPWNBBQ machine. We use it as support, it allows us to hold a gate 23/7 under sentry fire. Anything from an AF on up can survive the 300dps of sentry fire indefinitely using a carrier as support.
Says a lot about these forums, and why 99% of people know nothing of PvP, when someone uses the damage output of our carriers as 'proof' of how ineffective we are. I call it the SOLOWTFPWN mentality. People see a ship and immediately try to shoehorn it into SOLOWTFPWN machine and anyone who uses it in any other way is a 'noob.' People really just don't understand. They say we aren't 'good' at PvP because we kill noobs. Well let me just say, one more time, we kill everything. But that's neither here nor there. We also have in depth knowledge of game mechanics and player behavior, combine that with being able to catch and kill/ransom 95% of everything that passes by us (finding targets, the forgotten part of good PvP), and I'd say are ability to kill people is indesputable. Period.

We're good because we kill a lot. Killing us by blobbing us does not make you as good as us. Killing as much as we do makes you as good as us. End of story.

Originally by: Karlemgne Further, you are saying that only pirates can be good pvpers.
I've never said this.
PvP is such a general term. I don't know why people use it to judge anything in Eve. It's funny because Ginger uses it so litterally, PvP = Player vs. Player, no other requirements or qualifications needed. He has so many personal kills, how he got them, or who they are is irrelivant, the fact is that what he does is the litteral definition of PvP. When he says he is the #1 in Eve he isn't lying. Whether his idea of PvP matches with yours is irrelivant. But his defition of PvP is at least the litteral one and not one that requires a billion qualifications, all of which are personal preference.
Without linking to the killboard, I can tell you Ginger has more kills than anyone else on Battleclinic by a LARGE margin. Just because his litteral definition of PvP doesn't match your version of it doesn't mean he's lying when he says he's number one. And he knows this assertion ****es people off.
Ginger uses whatever definition of PvP will **** people off more. Calling himself the number one PvPer is not a lie by one standard. Saying LFT is lame because the blobbed the hell out of us is not a lie by other standards. It's really quite funny to play on people and all their personal qualifications for PvP to stir things up.
Personally I say PvP is the ability to do this (in order of importance):
1) Find targets 2) Choose battles wisely 3) Force the enemy to fight on your terms 4) Have the proper setup/ship for the battles you choose 5) Leave emotion out of battles
Doesn't matter to anyone but me probably. So why argue about it?

OMG LOL
Just what color is the sky in your world???
I have to ask the same question of you. Look at your sig. You have your signature devoted to Ginger, and it's been that way for quite some time. All your posts are inflamatory and add nothing to the discussion. You're an obsessed Ginger Fanboy, it's highly disturbing. I think the color of the sky in your world is Ginger. Maybe you should see a talking doctor or something.

But his defition of PvP is at least the litteral one and not one that requires a billion qualifications, all of which are personal preference.
If his definition is so litteral, and requires no qualifications, how is it that when he lost his carrier to LFT, he comes here to say that they are honorless scum who need to blob to kill and are poor pvpers? I mean, if Ginger just litterally means a player kill versus another player, then there should be no objection to lft killing him, right? I mean LFT did kill the ship Ginger was flying.
The fact of the matter is, if you read Ginger's post, he is embedding qualification. LFT destroyed his ship, but it doesn't really count, because he could have warped off at first. Plus, LFT are bad pvpers, because it took 6 of their capital ships to engage Snowy, therefore LFT is not as good as Snowy, which is uber.
Baring an edit of Gingers post, you simply cannot dispute this.
Without linking to the killboard, I can tell you Ginger has more kills than anyone else on Battleclinic by a LARGE margin.
Just because Ginger has more kills on Battleclinic, does not mean he has the most kills ever. Not everyone posts on Battleclinic... hell not everyone posts. I am reluctent to simply take you at your word here anyway. If Ginger had 10000 kills and another 20000 losses (which he doesn't post) the best you can say is that he's eve's most prolific pvper, maybe, but best? If you are losing 2 ships for every one you kill, you aren't the best... I think everyone can agree to this.
And he knows this assertion ****es people off.
It doesn't **** me off actually. I would say that I agree with him about 45% of the time he posts here... but when he starts saying he's eve's number one pvper, he just makes himself look like an egotist. I could care less if people have an over-inflated sense of their own value--its THEM who should care.
Saying LFT is lame because the blobbed the hell out of us is not a lie by other standards.
Ah, here is the rub. By using this standard and not the other (btw I think you just conceded my point above) he gives legitemacy to this standard. As such, Snowy can be held to this standard... and when Snowy is held to this standard, it turns out that Snowy is guilty of the same behavior as LFT... thus, Snowy is lame... Ginger trapped by his own logic into saying he sucks.
-Karlemgne
I think you "get it" but disagree with it. Ginger likes to stir the pot. Plain and simple. It's what makes him Ginger and is part of his charm. He states he's the numero uno PvPer, by a quite literal standard it is true. That is difficult to dispute without trying to force your preferences/ideals on everyone. Then he finally "gives in" and uses your definition of PvP to insult whomever the protagonist of your choosing is. Flames ensue. I think it's just funny. Winning the arguments is not Ginger's job (it's mine ). Causing the arguments is. It adds to our infamy. And in the end that makes us better pirates. All good pirate corps have an eccentric leader. Then you have the rest of us, quasi-intellectuals, some just plain old soldiers. I pitty the pirate corps that have the boring guy at the top.
